The #Giants have cut TE Kelvin Benjamin. Video surveillance footage showed Benjamin had been stealing food from the facility to take home. Benjamin was told by Gettleman and Judge before storming off and leaving camp. I just read this on this board, can this really be true..No, it’s been mentioned a few times in this thread this is a confirmed absolute fake story.

To think the Giants released him due to him taking food home is ridiculous. I kid about his appetite, but I know when it comes to his livelihood and his reputation. This story was made up by a person who has an IQ of a potato.

My hypothesis is that today was a heavy conditioning day Benjamin might have been so out of shape that they pulled the plug

He’s 265 at minicamp and Judge asks him to come into training camp at 251.
He shows up at 268 and is surprised to be cut.

Another Gettleman retread, surprise surprise! Getty likes to go dumpster diving for anyone he drafted or signed in the past, even if they are 2-3 years past their expiration date.

Hmmm hold on. Kelvin's side of the story concerns me a bit. Why did they want him to be smaller than he was when he was a WR?

Are we taking the "The Giant Insider Newspaper & Podcast" seriously now?
Really?

Let me get this straight... They wanted him to lose 17 pounds in a month? Is that even possible, or even healthy? The Giants knew exactly what they were getting, they should’ve cut him then, or let him compete if he passed all the physicals. It sounds like the HC and GM were on a totally different page with this player.
That's the first time I ever heard of a player being cut during practice. Sorry, but the whole thing sounds weird. In the last 2 seasons we’ve had the Baker, debacle, the Colombo debacle, the Toney debacles, now this... Can we get back to being a normal team and stop making headlines for all the wrong reasons?

Yes it is but he came in heavier! WTF? exactly. While 17 lb in a month is a lot to lose, had he lost 5ish , which is reasonable, it probably would have gone over quite differently.

At least this Getty joke of a signing didn't waste too much time on the roster.. Another bad optic for Judge and like the Gilmore fan stated can they stop making headlines for the wrong reasons already..

To me after reading this. I think there is more there then weight. He seems like a "I am going to do it my way" kind of individule. When there are consequences for that mindset. He takes no blame for his role in it.

Well with pearls of wisdom like JJ will never win a SB because he is cussing all the time, I would say no big loss...well a big loss but not a big loss if you know what I mean.

a 90 man ****ing camp roster. BFD....he came in and now he's gone.
Its not DG dumpster diving at all or banking on retreads. They brought him in, it didnt work out and he's gone quickly.
No harm no foul.

"But Benjamin passed the Giants’ conditioning test Tuesday, he said. The test for a tight end consists of the player completing 20 50-yard dashes in under seven seconds."
1000 yards in 7 seconds?? Whoa.

He screwed up showing up heavier then he was when he left maybe if he lost some weight they would have taken him seriously. Only part I don't get is doing it out on the field.

Whoa. It is simple they asked him to drop from 265 to 251 if lost some of it he might still be here but he came back at 268 almost 270. Maybe if he lost 7 or 8 pounds he would be here it is obvious he didn't even try, if he let this slide other players would call him a hypocrite, he pushes conditioning sets rules but doesn't hold players accountable.
